Title : Friends Say So EP
Cat # : FACES 1214

A1. Friends Say So
A2. What Does it Take
B1. Nuff Thangs feat. Kez YM
B2. Can't You See

Friends come first, so to speak. We hold the words of those we hold dearly as gospel, and this EP mirrors that feeling.
After his last release "One" on Room With A View (w/ Detroit Swindle remix) and several contributions to labels like MCDE, Endless Flight or together as Creative Swing Alliance on Wolf Music, Tsuba & City Fly - FACES Records & MCDE labels head honcho Pablo Valentino decide to release what he describes as his first full EP on his own imprint FACES.

"Friends Say So" is a nicely stripped down filter-jam; you don't need much when all the elements are good like this: a haunting female vocal sample, gritty lo-fi beats, a disco loop. Reminiscent of early Shake or the very first Sneak records, this beauty will definatly set the floor on fire.
 
"What Does It Take" sounds like a straight up Shelter anthem from '92 that just got unearthed. Heavy on the 909 and Juno keys, its the kind of late night jam that leaves everybody with a smile on their face. 

On the B-side, "Nuff Thangs" opens up things nicely; lush keys on top of a disco sample set the mood for things to come with "Can't You See", a female diva singing her ass off over dirty-as-hell MPC beats and rhodes stabs. You cant go wrong with this package!

All tracks produced by Pablo Valentino except B1. produced by Pablo Valentino & Kez YM.
Mastered by Brandenburg Mastering.

A2. Pablo Valentino - What Does It Take (FACES 1214)

Kicking off the EP is the salaciously titled ‘Late Night Remedy’. Crowd noises interspersed with drum breaks and funky bass it definitely has a live feel – further emphasised with a female intermittently hollering from the crowd ‘See what you think about this girl’ juxtaposing with a typically de riguer soul vox exclaiming ‘Come on girl’. Complete with a cheeky motown sample from The Undisputed Truth and the track wouldn’t sound out of place on an old KDJ 12” – a funk-fuelled nocturnal jam that needs to be rinsed on the dancefloor…

Kez YM - Late Night Remedy [CFR006]

Since his initial releases in the late-nineties on fellow kindred spirit Moodymann’s KDJ imprint, producer du jour Andres has been an influential figure in the Detroit house scene. His unique blending of genres including soul, jazz, funk and disco with the house sounds synonymous with Detroit gained him a cult following in underground circles. It wasn’t until his eponymously-titled LP’s were released on Moodymann’s Mahogani imprint that more heads took notice – with the launch of his ‘La Vida’ label last year cementing his position as a house heavyweight with ‘Second Time Around’ and ‘New For U’ a permanent fixture in many a discernible DJ’s set. On to the remix and Andres keeps the dusty vox and typically drenches the track with his brand of motor city soul. Coming complete with warm bass and swooping strings, his interpretation as ever has a timeless aesthetic and creates an organic laissez-faire vibe that’s perfect to soak up and kick back to – a pure summer joint…

Review :

After his stellar 'Stride EP' release (FACES 1210) last year and his latest offering 'Late Night Blue Sound EP' (on the UK's City Fly's Records/ featuring Andrés remix), Japanese deep house king- Kez YM is back on FACES Records!

Bringing delicious beatdown flavors to the cooking pot that blends Kazuki Yamaguchi into a serving of signature recipe Kez YM. 
With ongoing support from influential peers such as Moodymann, Theo Parrish, Rick Wade & Cassy, this is one delicious treat that will leave the fans salivating for more. 

His reputation extends beyond his delicious creations, as one of the standout Japanese House Djs currently holding it down in his hometown and Europe.

Mixing ingredients from Detroit, Chicago House, Funk, Disco & Afro and endlessly rocking dance floors and hearts from Panorama Bar in Berlin to Eleven in Tokyo.

The 'Root Bound' EP journeys beyond his past offerings, fresh ingredients and mouth watering grooves, with a sprinkle of that typical Kez YM signature sound!

"The unbounded, genre-mashing DJ, producer and industry juggernaut, Diplo, is excited to announce the June 12th release of the Express Yourself EP on his label Mad Decent. The six-track recording from the man who makes up one half of the bombastic duo, Major Lazer, is his first solo release since 2004’s Florida and is a product of the artist's fearless endeavors of exploring and unearthing new music from around the world. Spastic freak-beats tie the recording together but genres present span from Dancehall to New Orleans Bounce to EDM. The EP features a laundry list of exciting collaborations, from dubstep superstars Datsik and Flinch to Dancehall pioneer Elephant Man. Each artist brings something exciting and new to Diplo's wild productions. The EP's title track and Diplo's first foray into the maddening beats and booty-popping sound of New Orleans Bounce has close to 900,000 plays on youtube and radio play across the US."

FACES Records is an independent record label founded in 2002 by Dj & Producer Pablo Valentino (Creative Swing Alliance, Kid sW!Ng' & Hipster Wonkaz).
They release “quality” and not “quantity” records by such artists as Motor City Drum Ensemble, The Revenge, Simbad, Mono/Poly, RedNose Distrikt, Kez YM, Rondenion, Inkswel, Kira Neris, grooveman Spot, just to name a few…

In the true adventurous spirit of his Kenbun radio show, Faces Records & MCDE imprint, Pablo Valentino is all about good music period. May it be jazz/hip hop, boogie/disco, house/broken beats...but always trying to explode and explore the boundaries between all creating patterns past, present and future.

FACES Records also own its subdivision MCDE Recordings run by both Danilo Plessow (Motor City Drum Ensemble) & Pablo Valentino (Faces Records).
https://soundcloud.com/mcde-recordings

MCDE is focussing on house and techno sounds - sophisticated, emotional tracks which stand on their own and also have a certain longevity. The goal is to bring some emotions back to the dancefloor, cause whats a party without a feeling?

Kerri Chandler once summed it up brillantly :
A basement, a red light & a feeling.
Thats what MCDE is about!
